Are Game Developers Using AI for NPCs?
Have you ever wondered how AI-powered NPCs can create deeper, more immersive game experiences?
This is a recording of our talk from a local conference on AI in game development. The audience found these ideas worth sharing, so we decided to translate it and make it available to a wider community.
We discuss how our experiments with language models inspired us to rethink NPC design, the technical challenges we faced integrating AI into our projects, and the potential of combining AI with game development tools to create more reactive, living virtual worlds:
🦇 "Vampire: The Masquerade – Chorus" – an immersive RPG where every NPC interaction is powered by AI, enabling natural, unscripted dialogue.
💼 "Investor’s Insight" – a venture capitalist simulator where AI-powered founders pitch startups and negotiate dynamically.
We also share why we believe AI opens up new opportunities for storytelling, player agency, and long-term replayability.
🔔 If you’re interested in shaping the future of these ideas with us, subscribe and share your feedback — we actively listen to our community, and your input influences the direction of our work.
Very soon, we’ll be sharing an early concept trailer, as well as demos showcasing how we prototype characters and core mechanics.
📌 Timestamps:
00:21 – How we started experimenting with LLMs
01:32 – From text chats to visual NPCs in Unity with speech technologies
02:13 – Potential applications of LLMs & VR beyond gaming
03:47 – Project #1: Investor’s Insight details
07:06 – Project #2: CHORUS RPG details
08:32 – Storytelling sandbox: how AI opens new opportunities for RPGs
11:17 – Q&A: Will AI break game design or make it better?
14:30 – Q&A: Why are there still so few AI-driven games?
16:03 – Character AI
16:57 – Datasets, AI hallucinations, and other practical nuances
18:56 – Q&A: Local deployment vs cloud + debates on AI & narrative control
22:45 – Performance and hardware limitations
